...Shakespeare’s romances, which is a cheap way of saying that it doesn’t fit nicely into the categories of Comedy, Tragedy, or History. In the first half of the play, King Leontes (Ricardo Pitts-Wiley) wrongly suspects that his wife Hermione (Paula Langton) is pregnant by his friend King Polixenes of Bohemia (Joel Colodner...
